~ 2-DAY MINISTERIAL PARLEY D ISAPPOINTS Tardicu Says French Want German Pay; i mehts-., Nort Promises of Wooden Houses. for Devastated Region. BY ANDRE TARDIEU Former French High <CTom to America. By Cable to The §i PARIS. June instoner r. 15.—Direct negotia- tions between two natlons often are advantageous, but it is very doubtful if that will prove the case in the meeting this week between Ministers woucheur and Rathenau. For the first time since 1§70 a French minis- ter has had a two-day conference with a German minister. M. Lou- chenr, minister of construction (for France, which has been devastated), and Herr Rathenau, minister of re- construction for Germany. which is mtact, have met at Weisbaden, and their ‘meeting bas provoked widely @rvetse comments. My doubt as to the benefit of the discussions is based upon the fact that T had occasion to view Rath- enau’s influence on German policy before the war at close range. for he was in Paris during the Franco-Ger- man discussions about Morocco, in the spring of 1910. Rathenau's career resembles in many points that of Loucheur. Both are engineers. Both first specialized in electricity, then entered the bi industrial trusts. and then turned to politics. Rathenau, however, differs from Loucheur in that he takes an in- terest in the general ideas of the philosophical systems, which are closed book to Loucheur. Rathenau was, with Ballin, Helffer- ich and Gwinner, one of the planners of that well known economic pan- German idea. Only yesterday Rathenau was de- claring that the London agreement could not be met by Germany, and now. as minister. he shifts his gun to the other shoulder and says that Germany can and must pay all that the London agreement imposes. Confidence in Germany Lackinx. Such about-faces are frequent in politics, but they do not increase public confidence in those who make them. 1 can assert positively. after a trip during which I talked with Frenchmen of every class and every profession. that French opinion lacks the confidence and does not share. the optimism of the Briand government concerning Germany. If vou Americans will try. as the saying goes, to put yvourselves into our shoes, you will readily under- stand this state of mind. ‘We are told that Rathenau and Lou- cheur talked about wooden houses which Germany might deliver to our devastated regions, and other such subjects. Fine! But wooden houses can be made in France as well as in Germany and the real reparations problem is some- thing quite different. It isn't merely economical. It is financial. _Stiil more i3 it a political and moral prob- em. Does Germany intend to pay? Will France permit her to evade payxing by following the tendency of the French governments of the last eight- een months? These are questions which must not remain unanswered and-the Weis- baden conference has failed to shed any light upon them. Let me cite a few examples to illustrate the state of mind of enlightened Frenchmen: Germany Taxed Lightly. Frenchmen know that the indirect taxes in Germany represent 6.30 francs per capita, while these same taxes in France are $3.70 francs, or thirteen times greater than the Ger- man people are paying. Germany's import taxes are 7.70 francs per capi- ta, while in France they are 58.60 or - eight times as great. Frenchmen also know that the treaty of Versaiiles proclaims that the German taxpayer shall be assessed as heavily. at least, as the most burdened of the allies. No wonder they exclaim “Shall it go on thus? Shall France allow it German pensioners are = receivi generous allowances. Interest ani amortizement regularly are met on all internal loans. Federal and state properties produce large revenues, which flow into the federal treasury. Frenchmen know that one article of the peace treaty says that repara- tions must take precedence over i terest payments on internal loans in Germany, and that another gives the allies a first mortgage on all the property and resources of the federal and state governments,.and that still another obliges Germany, at the re- quest of the allies, to promulgate the laws and decrees necessary to com- plete the execution of the reparations clauses. French Discontented. Knowing all this, Frenchmen see that not once in eighteen months has any effort been made to put these clauses into operation—clauses which properly used would draw billions out of Germany. Frenchmen can't understand why their government does not .use these weapons. And when they hear talk about Rathenau's and Loucheur's “wooden houses™ they shrug their shoulders and say that is not the question. There are only two solutions as to how Germany shall be made to pay.

Germany will not pay if France does nothing to compel her to pay. I repeat that the problem lies in the political and moral fleld. Contriv- ances of two mere business men like Loucheur and Rathenau cannot pos- sibly solve it. That is what France thinks. If you wonder if France is right, ask yourselt what you would do in her place. (Copyright, 1921.) SO MORE VOLENT DEATHS IN RELAND Bullets Sweep Dublin Streets During Fierce Attack on Crown Forces. By the Associated Press. DUBLIN, June 18.—Armed civilians were discovered late today layiss a road mine at Coolbawn by a par.y of soldiers, who opened fire. killing one of th¢m and wounding two others. A police patrol was ambushed near Newmarket-on-Fergus. One police- man was wounded, one of thé attack- ing party, who had been wounded, was captured, and another member of the party is believed to have been killed. Phillip Duggen was dragged from his_home at Grangeshiggen, county Kildare, by eight armed men and shot dead. His mother, who is seventy years iold, was seriously wounded. The dead body of Patrick Darcy, a school teacher, was found near Corra- clare by a police patroi. It was la- bled: “Sooner or later we get them. This spy was tried. convicted and ecuted by the Irish republican army Crown Forces Ambushed. Crown forces were ambushed t night_at the junction of Ryders Row and Capel strect. The streets were swept with bullets, and three men, three women and one little girl suf- fered gunshot wounds and were taken to a hospital. The casuaities among the crown forces are not reported. The Sinn Fein campaign against steamers carrying supplies to crown forces, coast guard stations and resi- dences on the countryside cortinues unabated. The steamer Rostellan Castle, with supplies consigned to the military forces on Spike Island, was boarded today by twenty armed men in boats at Blackrock, County Cork, and beer. potatoes and cakes were thrown overboard. Coast Guard Stations Burned. Four coast guard stations in County Bublin were burned to the ground, the Wexford county courthouse was bombed and destroyed, and Ravens- dale Castle, in County Louth, one o the finest mansions in Leinster, wa! set afire this morning. The castle had recently been sold by Lord Arran to a Dublin merchant. After the shooting of Constable Campbell near Dundalk last night, armed men early this morning en- tered a saloon and took two Sons of the proprietress, John and Patrick Watters, from their beds and shot them on the street. A third son es- caped. . OUSTED WAR CRIPPLES PROTEST IN BERLIN Maimed Men Parade on Crutches and in Wheelchairs—Put Out | of Hospitals by Government. I By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily Copyright, 1921. BERLIN, Germany, June 18.—Many war cripples who were mercilessly ousted from the hospitals by the act of the German government in revok- ing the appropriation for the main— tenance of these institutions. demon- strated Friday in Unter den Linden against this measure. On crutches and in wheelchairs and with bandaged faces they proceeded up and down Rerlin's boulevard de Luxe and pre- sented a sharp contrast with the richly dressed promenaders and the war profiteers in automobiles, This is the first time since the armistice that many of the war vie- tims have been seen in Berlin, as the government has taken pains to keep them from being seen by the public. Their demonstration was all the more effective as most of them were -clad only in rags. T WILL, NOT BB RESPONRIBLE debts unless contracted by me l;‘,’;n ‘:" FRANK P. LEACH. 1517 7th at. n.w. .

MAGEDONIA BLOCKS BULGAR-SERB PACT Bulgaria Willing to Drop Ob- stacle Question, But Patriots Hold Out. BY PAUL SCOTT MOWRER. By Wireless to The Star and Chicago Daily News, Copyright, 1921. PARIS, France, June 18.—The recent conference in Belgrade between the Bulgarian minister of the interior, M. Dimitrov, and the Serbian premier, M. Pashitch, in which Bulgaria definitely proposed to federate with Jugoslavia and in which Serbia promised to sup- port the idea, is regarded here us an event of great importance in the Balkans. The Bulgarians being Slavs, their entry into the Jugoslav state would create a powerful country ex- tending on the one side to the Adriatic and on the other to the Black sea and having a population of nearly 20,000,- 000. The peasant party, which at present rules in Bulgaria, has consistently favored such a federation. The ob- stacle to its realization heretofore has been the mutual suspicion and hatred of the Serbs and Bulgars, especially over the Macedonian question. The Bulgarian peasant party wants to let the Macedonian question drop forever, but there is a large and patriotic ele- ment in Bulgaria, particularly the group known as the Macedonian or- ganization, which seems to have sworn never to renounce hope of freeing Macedonia from Greece and Serbia. Macedonians Still Active. This Macedonian organization, al- though completely out of favor with the Sofia government. has by no means ceased Its activities. Only the other day the writer had a call from a Macedonian who told him that the Macedonian organization had merely changed its poli Instead of de- manding union with Bulgaria, a8 heretofore, it will henceforth raliy to the cry of “Macedonia for the Muce- donians!” _irrespective of Bulgars, Grecks, Albanians, Turks and Serbs. all being regarded alike as Maoe- donians and primarily interested in this unhappy region's unity and in- dependence. Steps have already been taken in Geneva for the opening of a propaganda campaign along this line Complain of Iucursions. Independent Macedonia as now envisaged would have the ports of Saloniki and Kavalli and would in- clude considerable slices of what are now pasts of Greece, Serbia and Bulgaria. It is doubtless in conse- quence of this renewal of activity of the Macedonian organization that the Serbs have had occasion to complain of incursions by Bulgarian insurgent bands in a portion of Macedonia. Minister Dimitrov has assured Pre- mier Pashitch that the present Bul- garian government has no sympathy with these bands and will dé every- thing possible to suppress them. The minister even proposed the establish- ment of a common Serbo-Bulgarian police along the frontler. However, once Bulgaria is included in the Jug v federation this Macedonian ques- tion is sure to become acute again, for all Jugoslavia will then begin demanding Saloniki from Greece, that port being Macedonia’s natural outlet. AMERGAN SHPS BUSY, RVALS IDLE Scandinavians Bitter Critics of Success Won Despite Unofficial Boycott. BY HAL O'FLAHERTY. By Cable to The Star and Chicago Daily News. Copyright, 1921, COPENHAGEN, Denmark, June 18.— Scandinavian ship owners received a surprise during the last month, when they found that a large portion of the American cargoes coming to the ports in this part of the world were brought in American bottoms in spite of the fact that an unofficial boycott was operating against the United States Shipping Ber the las ‘or the last year mearly every con- tract signed by Scandinavian buyers has contained a clause specifying that the goods must be shipped on Scandina- vian boats. This was due to the absurd delays and poor operating methods em- plosed by the United States Shipping l ‘With this clause operating against the American ships, it was belleved that very few boats flying the Stars and Stripes would anchor in Scandi- navian ports this season.

BERLIN, June 1S.—In the whirl of discord which engulfs Europe today, the cause of the more imme- diate discord seems all but for- gotten in the more cagerly dis- cussed meetings of a French and German minister of reconstruction at Weisbaden. But the Upper Silesian problem still is with us and it must be set- tled very shortly. It was this problem ~ which an es- trangement between France and Great Britain recently and out of that estrangement strange:rumors of new alliances and new ententes have risen. But before there can be ententes and “agreements . must be wu wiping out of cavg:s of disagreement. TS story of Upper Silesia should be put in the manuals for future political students as a standard example of the damage done by the old tactics of consclous insin- cerity. . Polish fanatics p lied supreme coun Upper._ Silesia_had been wrested trom Poland by the Germans and that an overwhelming majority of the people longed for the day when they would return to Polund. That is untrue. Upper Sllesia, for eight hundred years. or since the beginning of the Norman conquest over kng- land. has not belonsed to Poland. It has been ruled by ancestral s princes of the Czechs and Aus- trians, -and it was not until it came under Prussia that it at- taied economical imporiance or prosperity. Silesia voluntarily has sent German representatives to Prussia’s and Germany's parliament, suntil about thirty years ago Korfanty, the young son of a Kattowitz miner, was clected 1o the reichstag, with a surprisingly . large majority. Korfanty's Agitation. Korfanty immediately started a passionate but clever agitation for making the province Polish. This agitation facilitated by Prus- sia’s bad psychological treatment of the natives. But not until th middle of the great war did any body, even Korfanty, think seri- ously of Silesia’'s severance from Prussia. In 1917 a series of gov ernment concessions satisfled nine- tenths of the people. The German peace delegation tried to dissuade the supreme council from its decision regarding separation, by informing it in May, 1919, that without Upper Silesfa Germany would not be able to pay the reparation demanded. That is not absolutely correct, as the value of Upper Silesia does not amount to more than 2 per cent of the total German possessions. It is correct, however. to say that Ger- many's reparation possibilities will be lessened if it has less coal and loses the Upper Silesian iron, zinc and lead, which mean a part of her manufacturing ability. The supreme council finally al- lowed a plebiscite. Being an Up- per Silesian by birth and a Pole By passionate conviction, Korfanty became the Polish commissioner. is cunning, energetic man, who rsuaded the al- - T0 SUIT AMERICA miers to Keep in Close Touch With U.

The sharp words of a charming American ‘lady who once said, “A conquered Frenchman is charmin . but a victorious Frenchman un. bearable,” can be more correctly applied to Korfanty. During the war he was surrounded by mis- trust and looked upon suspicious- ly by military Poies in authority. He often swore. ¥ven to me. th: a resurrected l'oland would always be guided by human kindness and not assume the harshness of the Prussian regime. Stirs Up German Hatred. As plebiscite commissioner, how- ever, Korfanty immediately kin- dled the wildest hatred of the Ger- mans. He and his supporters went beyond the bounds of common de- cency, man, ‘and until the last hour he swore (and proved by his maps) that the plebiscite would yield at least 80 per cent Polish votes. It was a_personal defeat for him when the returns showed only a 40 per cent Polish vote. Korfanty then tried to save himself by forcible measures. This | was made easier for him by the | rather thoughtless English procla- mation that Poland should receive the districts of Rybnik and Pless. He obtained further support as a result of the triumphant shout- ing of the Berlin government that the plebiscite meant a return to Germany of an' undivided Upper | Silesia. In accordance with the wording of. the' treaty of Versailles an undivided Upper Silesia is an | impossibility, but this is known | only to one in a thousand ( mans, and almost the whole nation is convinced that as a result of the plebiscite only shameful flle- gality on the part of the allies | | | - can take away any part of Si- lesia. ) Korfanty took advantage of this misrepresentation, proclaimdd him- self dictator and called the masses to rebellion. He tried all of -the terror of “German fright- fulness,” of Jewish pogroms, plun- dering, etc., to force the non- Polish elements into civil war, which, because of Poland's superi- | ority regarding arms and ammuni- tion, would lead to making the rovince Polish and thus acquire recognition from the allies. This has been prevented, although great mistakes have been made by German militarists and adven- turers. ) Nevertheless, German Jews in Upper Silesia have lived through weeks of terrible suffering, when neither their legal possessions nor the honor of their women has been spared by the criminal vagabonds of the insurgent army. g The only thing to do is to give | Poland enough territory to take care of the three-quarters of a million persons who voted for Po- land, or to have Silesia adminis- tered internationally for the time being. the governing body to in- clude German and Polish repre- sentatives. The poor German mark today is worth twenty-two Polish marks. Any industrial country given to Poiand today is economically lost to Europe, which cannot. however, afford to lose a single square mile.

Copyright, 1921. PARIS, France, June 18.—From a competent source the writer learns | that in the Wiesbaden conversations, Walter Rathenau took occasion to propose to Louis Loucheur the forma- tion of a gigantic Franco-German | trust or cartel, including the principal industries of . both countries and dividing between them without any | competition whatever the share of the world’s foreign trade they can capture. This is not considered here to be a new policy, for William II had ar. Imperial Germany was always trying to form- an alliance with Frange, i which in effect would gradually have become some sort of annexation. | Similar Purpose Suspected. , It is now suspected that something of the same kind was in the back of Herr Rathenau's mind, for Ger- many’s industrial strength is much greater than that of France and the Iatter, it is feared, would soon sink into a secondary position. Thus far the whole affair has not gorte beyond the conversational stage, but the conversations will be continued in Paris between French and German technicians. Generally speaking, the realization f Rathenau’s scheme would prob- ably be difficult in France. - The Frenchman is_excessively individual- istic and looks with antipathy on those vast combinations which are so developed in Germany and which | Rathenau is seeking to develop still further. 3 It is felt that French industry is ot sufficiently concentrated as yet to be included in such a gigantic frame- | work. _Moreover, the repugnance of | most French business men for any- thing seeming to tend toward so- cialism makes them refractory to amalgamations of this order. Says France Has Clear Vislon, “France has a clear vision of the its independence would run through a too close interrelation of French and German industries,” one French financier remarked to ‘the writet. ' By this he doubtless meant that only by Keeping its industries entirely independent can a nation be considered thoroughly equipped for gelf defense in case of war. Still another part of the Loucheur- Rathenau conver¥ation concerned technical details of the London repar- ations agreement, which was hastily thrown together in one night and which is thought to be imperfect in several details.
